Potatoes are a cook’s best friend! Not only are they delicious in ANY form, but they are tasteless on their own – which means one can play around with the flavors and come up with a new and innovative recipe every single time! Personally, I like them roasted with some turmeric, asafetida and chilli powder and garnished with some mustard seeds – a typical Indian recipe used in many homes. But the more I think about potatoes, the more I start to drool at the number of delicious dishes I could make with them!

In its simplest state – with just a little butter and salt and some pepper, maybe – the potato is going to be completely delicious. You know it! Now anything you do here onward is just going to multiply the taste (in a good way) by a huge number! From simple roasted potatoes to artfully cooked potatoes, this list of 40 recipes will give you a wide variety of options to choose from to fall in love with potatoes – all over again!

Before I move on to the list, here are a couple of quick tips on how to cook potatoes:

BOILING – Fill a large pot with water, bring it to a boil, add a generous pinch of salt (optional), add in the washed potatoes and cook on high heat for about 20 minutes or until a knife inserted through the potato goes in and out without any resistance. You could also do this in a pressure cooker. Depending on how soft or well cooked you want, the cooking time will vary.

BAKING / ROASTING – Preheat an oven to 200 C / 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Scrub the potato clean under water, dry it with a towel, then poke a few holes through to the center of it with a fork. Bake the potato for one hour or until tender.

Ready? Let us look at some amazingly scrumptious recipes that you should make with a potato!
